Reasons Why Twin Flames Might Not Be Romantic

The primary reason that some twin flames don’t have a romantic relationship is societal pressure.

In other words, what society expects from you and the norms it imposes on you might make you feel unable to have a romantic relationship with your twin flame.

Age gaps are common with twin flames, and while most fall within acceptable boundaries in most places in the world, some do not.

An age difference of ten years is common and commonly accepted, but some twin flames are twenty or thirty years apart, and a romantic relationship will often be not just frowned upon but also not right for the individuals concerned.

While this shouldn’t make a difference, for most people, it does.

There are other reasons, too. Sexual orientation, existing love relationships and religious or societal rules can stand in the way of romantic relationships between twin flames.

It’s Okay To Be Twin Flame Best Friends

The solution for people who cannot, for whatever reason, be romantic with their twin flame is simple:

You can be best friends.

There is no reason that this type of twin flame relationship should be worth any less than a romantic one, and all the same, concepts still apply.

In fact, in the event of a significant age gap, a mentor-mentee relationship is usually far more beneficial than a romantic one anyway, and these twin flames tend to fall into this type of relationship quite naturally.

A word of warning for those who embark on a non-romantic twin flame journey:

You should be conscious of this and work to make sure that jealousy (from both your romantic partner and twin flame!) doesn’t ruin either relationship.

Remember, your twin flame relationship is as unique as you are. Conforming to what other people say is “normal” will not necessarily work out for you – so the only thing you can do is follow your heart.
